Operational Overview 

Financial Review

Revenues
Revenue in Q2 2026 was $929 million (46% gold, 52% silver, 0.3% palladium and 2% cobalt), with the $426 million increase relative to the prior period quarter being primarily due to a 61% increase in the average realized gold equivalent³ price; and a 14% increase in the number of GEOs³ sold.

Revenue was $1.8 billion (49% gold, 49% silver, 0.4% palladium and 2% cobalt) during the six months ended June 30, 2026, with the $857 million increase from the comparable period of the previous year due primarily to a 78% increase in the average realized gold equivalent³ price; and a 5% increase in the number of GEOs³ sold.

Cash Costs and Margin
Average cash costs¹ in Q2 2026 were $568 per GEO³ as compared to $406 in Q2 2025. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $3,875 per GEO³ sold, an increase of 65% as compared with the second quarter of 2025, a result of the higher realized price per ounce. Notably, year-over-year margin growth exceeded the appreciation in gold prices over the same period, underscoring the effectiveness of Wheaton’s business model in generating higher levered cash flow and margins in a rising precious metals price environment.

Average cash costs¹ for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $621 per GEO³ as compared to $399 in the comparable period of the previous year. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $4,063 per GEO³ sold, an 83% increase from comparable period of the previous year, a result of the higher realized price per ounce.

Cash Flow from Operations
Operating cash flow in Q2 2026 amounted to $650 million, with the $235 million increase from the comparable period of the prior year being due primarily to higher gross margin.

Operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026, amounted to $1.4 billion, with the $640 million increase from the comparable period of the previous year being due primarily to higher gross margin.

Produced But Not Yet Delivered
As at June 30, 2026, approximately 157,600 GEOs³ were produced but not yet delivered (“PBND”) representing approximately 2.6 months of payable production, consistent with the preceding four quarters and within our guided range of two and a half to three and a half months.

Balance Sheet (at June 30, 2026)

• On April 1, 2026, the Company drew down on its new $1.5 billion non-revolving credit facility (the “Term Loan”) with a two-year term. Proceeds from the Term Loan, together with a draw on the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand, were used to fund the BHP Antamina PMPA.
• During Q2 2026, the Company increased its existing Revolving Credit Facility by $500 million to $2.5 billion and extended its maturity by one year to June 30, 2031.
• As at June 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $100 million of cash on hand and $2.0 billion outstanding under the Company’s Term Loan and its Revolving Credit Facility.
• During Q2 2026, the Company made net upfront cash payments of $4.5 billion relative to the mineral stream interests consisting of:
  • BHP Antamina: $4.3 billion;
  • Koné: $156 million;
  • Spanish Mountain: $23 million;
  • Jervois: $16 million; and
  • Cipango: $4.5 million.
• Subsequent to the quarter, the Company made an additional upfront cash payment of $43.875 million relative to the El Domo mineral stream interest.

Second Quarter Operating Asset Highlights

Salobo: In Q2 2026, Salobo produced 62,100 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of 11% relative to Q2 2025, primarily the result of lower grades. 

Antamina: In Q2 2026, Antamina produced 2.3 million ounces of attributable silver, an increase of 56% relative to Q2 2025. The increase was primarily driven by the newly acquired BHP Antamina PMPA, which increased the Company’s share of silver production at Antamina from 33.75% to 67.5%, effective April 1, 2026. The benefit of the increased production share was partially offset by lower silver grades and the timing of planned maintenance, as a scheduled July maintenance shutdown was advanced into June. Lower grades were attributable to pit sequencing, with a greater proportion of copper-only ore processed during the quarter relative to copper-zinc ore, which contains more silver.

Peñasquito: In Q2 2026, Peñasquito produced 1.8 million ounces of attributable silver, a decrease of 14% relative to Q2 2025, primarily the result of lower grades and recoveries resulting from planned mine sequencing, partially offset by higher throughput.

Constancia: In Q2 2026, Constancia produced 0.6 million ounces of attributable silver and 3,000 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of 2% for silver production and a decrease of 35% for gold production relative to Q2 2025. The lower gold production was the result of lower grades and recoveries, as mining activities in the higher-gold grade Pampacancha pit were completed during Q4 2025, and the remaining stockpiled Pampacancha ore was fully processed during January 2026.

On July 2, 2026, Hudbay announced that it had received approval from the National Environmental Certification Service for Sustainable Investments in Perú (“SENACE”) to amend its environmental permit and further increase annual mill processing capacity at Constancia. The amended permit increases the processing capacity of the Constancia mill to 34 million tonnes of ore per annum from 31 million tonnes per annum. Hudbay states that the environmental permit amendment also approves further optimization of the mine plan, extends the operational life of Constancia, and incorporates the implementation of additional infrastructure to improve tailings transport infrastructure and water management systems.

Stillwater: In Q2 2026, the Stillwater mines produced 1,400 ounces of attributable gold and 2,500 ounces of attributable palladium, a decrease of 14% for gold and an increase of 3% for palladium relative to Q2 2025. The decrease in gold production was primarily a result of lower recoveries, partially offset by higher throughput, while the increase in palladium production was primarily a result of higher throughput.

Blackwater: In Q2 2026, Blackwater produced 0.1 million ounces of attributable silver and 5,900 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of 7% and 46%, respectively, relative to Q2 2025, primarily the result of higher recoveries, grades and throughput. On August 4, 2026, Artemis Gold Inc. (“Artemis Gold”) provided an update on the Phase 1A expansion at Blackwater, which is anticipated to increase the plant’s nameplate capacity by 33%, from 6 to 8 million tonnes per annum. Artemis Gold reported that Phase 1A was 57% complete at the end of Q2 2026 and remains on schedule for commissioning in Q4 2026, with the expansion expected to contribute to production beginning in 2027. Further, Artemis Gold reported that the early works program for EP2 is nearing completion, with the first concrete pour for the ball mill foundations completed ahead of schedule. EP2 represents a significant addition to processing plant capacity above Phase 1A, and once complete, Phase 1A and EP2 are expected to expand throughput capacity to 250%, from the existing 6 Mtpa to 21 Mtpa by Q4 2028.

Voisey’s Bay: In Q2 2026, the Voisey’s Bay mine produced 796,000 pounds of attributable cobalt, an increase of 23% relative to Q2 2025 as the underground mine at Voisey’s Bay continues ramp-up to full production, with full ramp-up expected by the second half of 2026. 

Other Gold: In Q2 2026, total Other Gold attributable production was 5,900 ounces, an increase of 667% relative to Q2 2025 due to the addition of attributable production from the Fenix, Hemlo and Goose mines. Notable operational updates for assets included within ‘Other Gold’ include:

• Marmato: On July 29, 2026, Aris Mining (“Aris”) reported that underground access connecting the Bulk Mining Zone to the new plant area is complete, with SAG and ball mills on site, and mechanical installation underway. Construction of the 5,000 tpd CIP plant continues to advance toward first gold and is on schedule for Q4 2026. Aris plans to exit 2026 operating the new CIP plant at approximately 3,000 tpd, before ramping up through 2027 to approximately 4,000 tpd by mid-2027 and the full 5,000 tpd design capacity by the end of 2027, following commissioning of the paste backfill plant.
• Hemlo: On July 20, 2026, Hemlo Mining Corp. (“Hemlo Mining”) announced that gold production in Q2 2026 was lower than Q1 2026, reflecting a strategic refinement to the mining sequence. During the quarter, portions of the operation transitioned from a top-down to a bottom-up mining approach to reduce waste handling and improve long-term mining efficiency, resulting in delayed access to certain higher-grade stopes. Hemlo Mining expects higher production in future quarters as newly developed mining areas progress into the production sequence.

Other Silver: In Q2 2026, total Other Silver attributable production was 1.6 million ounces, an increase of 19% relative to Q2 2025, primarily the result of the resumption of mining at Aljustrel and the commencement of production at Mineral Park, partially offset by lower production at Zinkgruvan. Notable operational updates for assets included within ‘Other Silver’ include:

• Aljustrel: In the third quarter of 2025, Almina resumed production of the zinc and lead concentrates at the Aljustrel mine, resulting in the resumption of attributable silver production to the Company.
• Los Filos: On June 25, 2026, Equinox Gold Corp. (“Equinox”), announced that it has signed 20-year land access agreements with all three communities, Carrizalillo, Mezcala and Xochipala, that host its Los Filos mine. With these agreements in place, Equinox has initiated activities to support the gradual restart of heap leach operations and to advance technical studies to evaluate potential expansion opportunities.

Detailed mine-by-mine production and sales figures can be found in the Appendix to this press release and in Wheaton’s consolidated MD&A in the ‘Results of Operations and Operational Review’ section.

Kurmuk: On July 29, 2026, Allied Gold Corporation (“Allied”) announced that the previously announced agreement with Zijin Gold International Company Limited (“Zijin Gold”), where Zijin Gold was to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Allied, has been terminated. Allied states further that Zijin Gold has agreed to make a strategic investment in Allied of approximately $295 million, at a subscription price representing a premium to the current market price of Allied’s common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Allied also reported that development of the Kurmuk project continued to advance during the second quarter, with the start of operations expected in August and first gold pour following a few weeks thereafter. Allied states that key execution milestones continue to be met, and the project remains on budget and on schedule while advancing commissioning activities.

Koné: On June 15, 2026, Montage Gold (“Montage”) reported that construction of the Koné project remains on-budget and ahead of schedule with first gold pour targeted in late Q4 2026 through the oxide circuit, while the hard-rock comminution circuit remains on track for completion in Q2 2027. Montage also reported that it has significantly exceeded its target of delineating more than 1Moz of M&I Resources at a grade at least 50% higher than that of the Koné deposit and is continuing to aggressively advance exploration through the ongoing 90,000 meter drill program, with further resource updates expected throughout the year.

El Domo: On July 15, 2026, Silvercorp Metals Inc. (“Silvercorp”) reported that construction advanced steadily despite rainfall challenges in the period.

Non-GAAP Measures

Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-GAAP performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis; (iv) cash operating margin; and (v) net debt.

i    Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of non-cash impairment charges (reversals) (if any), non-cash fair value (gains) losses and the non-cash accretion of interest on the 777 PMPA refundable deposit as well as the reversal of non-cash income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic and diluted).

ii    Operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted) is calculated by dividing cash generated by operating activities by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (basic and diluted). The Company presents operating cash flow per share as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis.

The following table provides a reconciliation of operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted).

iii    Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion and cost of sales related to delay ounces, by the ounces or pounds sold. In the precious metal mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow.

The following table provides a calculation of average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis.

iv    Cash operating margin is calculated by adding back depletion and the cost of sales related to delay ounces to the gross margin. Cash operating margin on a per ounce or per pound basis is calculated by dividing the cash operating margin by the number of ounces or pounds sold during the period. The Company presents cash operating margin as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis as well as to evaluate the Company’s ability to generate cash flow.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash operating margin.

v    Net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from the outstanding bank debt under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan. The Company presents net debt as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s liquidity and financial position.

The following table provides a calculation of the Company’s net debt.

These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. For more detailed information, please refer to Wheaton’s MD&A available on the Company’s website at www.wheatonpm.com and posted on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Although Wheaton has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contained in forward‑looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results, level of activity, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and even if events or results described in the forward-looking statements are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Wheaton. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. The forward-looking statements included herein are for the purpose of providing readers with information to assist them in understanding Wheaton’s expected financial and operational performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes.

Cautionary Language Regarding Reserves and Resources

For further information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources and on Wheaton more generally, readers should refer to Wheaton’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed on March 31, 2026 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2026, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Wheaton’s Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are subject to the qualifications and notes set forth therein. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources: The information contained herein has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. The Company reports information regarding mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources in accordance with Canadian reporting requirements which are governed by, and utilize definitions required by, Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Standards”). These definitions differ from the definitions adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) which are applicable to U.S. companies. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted by the SEC. Accordingly, information contained herein that describes Wheaton’s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. United States investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in Wheaton’s Form 40-F, a copy of which may be obtained from Wheaton or from https://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.
